Had this app as free version for years but hardly used, been doing music theory looked @ the app again one day and understood it...now the best music app I have... a jewel I never realised I had.... thanks
I bought the paid version of singing but can't find the bit where I can see the notes in each chord. I love the concept but I guess I'm missing something hence the lower score. Happy to revisit if someone can point out where I'm going wrong.
Don't know what's happened, went back to this app after a break from it and it refuses to open. Tried reinstalling makes no difference. Can you help please dev.
Love it ! Would be great if it had pentatonic , blues and some exotic scales. Please please please !!!
I love this app so much! I wish there was a way to have metronome in the background while I mess around with chords.
The concept is excellent but the M/M, m7, and M7 functions change only the selected chord and do not modulate the current chord set accordingly and therefore the set becomes "sour". I know this is open to interpretation, but that's the point, and it should go to the next in the scale simply and step through the options but tapping or let you pick which modulation mode. As is, that function is a bit weak though, thus for stars. Otherwise, quite nice app.
Pretty much the simplest and most useful app when I want to come up with a chord progression for my melody. Excellent samples that actually sound good. Most likely could be done even if you have no music theory knowledge. This is so great for on-the-go when you don't have a guitar or piano handy. So easy. Love it. Well worth a few bucks.
Dev, would you consider sending midi out through USB or WiFi?
I love this app. Works great for song creation and ideas!
I enjoyed using the free version of this app and decided to buy the pro version but I found that it was slower to start up than the free version.
